Driving to work, a gentleman had to swerve to avoid a box that fell out of a truck in front of him. Seconds later, a policeman pulled him over for reckless driving. Fortunately, another officer had seen the carton in the road. This policeman stopped traffic and recoverd the box. It was found to contain large upholstery tacks.
"I'm sorry sir," the first officer told the driver, "but I'm still going to have to write you a ticket."
Amazed, the driver asked for what.
The officer replied, "Tax evasion."
